The villages name origin is uncertain perhaps, 'homestead/village of Ytra's/Ytri's people' or 'homestead/village of the Ytteringas (= those dwelling outside)'.

Itteringham lies in the valley of the River Bure that eventually becomes a major part of the Norfolk Broads. The village has a pub, the Walpole Arms and a village shop. The converted watermill is a historical feature within the village. Mannington Hall is included in the parish.

The poet George Barker lived in the village and is buried in the churchyard.
